Choosing The Right Clearance Company

Unlicensed waste clearance operators
As part of the Clean Neighbourhood Act, householders now have a duty of care to make sure their waste is disposed of legally. This means that you are responsible for making sure that your goods are not flytipped by a third person. If your goods are dumped illegally and traced back to you, you could face a fine of up to £5,000.


If you are approached by a household clearance company:
• Ask to see a copy of the firm's waste carriers' licence
• Obtain a waste transfer note, or receipt, a valid company name, address & telephone number

 

All House Clearance Companies must have the following licence



Fly Tipping


Fly Tipping is on the rise in your area right now. There are new 'Man & Van' adverts popping up all over the place.
Don't put yourself at risk. We have been operating for over 15 years. We are licensed, Reputable and guarantee all your waste will be disposed of correctly.
The Waste Partnership launched the 'Illegal Dumping Costs' campaign in November 2003 to combat illegal dumping and waste management offences in Buckinghamshire. Since that date the Partnership has secured over 600 convictions against individuals and companies for illegal dumping and related offences.
On average, since April 2010, there has been at least one conviction per week for illegal dumping offences in Buckinghamshire. This has resulted in a halving of reported incidents and a significant saving to the Buckinghamshire taxpayer over the period, principally through reducing removal and disposal costs.
If you see any dumped waste please report it as soon as possible.
Reporting fly-tipping is easy: upload details including location and photos online or on your mobile

 


Duty of Care (Householders)


If you pass your household waste (including DIY waste) to anyone else, you MUST check that they are legally authorised to take it. If the waste is illegally dumped and you did not check, you could be fined up to £5000.
